Frederick County Sustainability Commission

Frederick County Sustainability Commission The commission provides a community-based perspective on issues related to sustainability and guides development of a Frederick County Sustainability Plan.

Long-term, community sustainability is not achievable without the investment and collaborative spirit of residents, businesses, schools, volunteer groups, non-profits, and government agencies. There are simply too many roles for 1 individual or organization to fill; a community-wide commitment is needed to make substantial contributions toward our goals. In order to engage the community and learn

from the diversity of voices present in Frederick County, the County established the Sustainability Commission in 2009. The commission provides a community-based perspective on issues related to sustainability and guides the development of a Frederick County Sustainability Plan. Meetings

On World Bee Day we are excited to announce that Frederick County and the City of Frederick have both become part of the Bee City USA program! That means we are strengthening our commitment to protecting natural habitats and taking actions to support pollinators.

Pollinators are key not only to environmental health but also play a critical role for our farm community. Fly on over to our website to see how you can help bee the change- from planting native wildflowers, to reducing garden chemical use, and maybe leaving a few piles of leaves at the edges of your yard. Many small actions can make a big buzz!
